论文摘要
这项研究调查了竞争性项目资金对研究人员出版成果的影响。我们使用有关瑞士国家科学基金会（SNSF）申请人的详细信息及其提案的评估，我们采用了一个案例对照设计，该设计涉及研究人员的个别异质性，并选择治疗（例如资金）。我们估计授予奖励对一组衡量新研究结果（同行评审的文章的数量）的产生指标的影响，其相关性（引用和相对引文比率的数量），以及其可访问性和通过预印刷术和Altmetrics来衡量的可访问性和传播。结果表明，资金计划有助于在赠款之后的三年中的每一年中进行额外的研究发表和传播。资助研究人员的较高引用指标和出版物的Altmetrics表明，影响超出了数量，但资金却促进了质量和影响。
This study investigates the impact of competitive project-funding on researchers' publication outputs. Using detailed information on applicants at the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF) and their proposals' evaluation, we employ a case-control design that accounts for individual heterogeneity of researchers and selection into treatment (e.g. funding). We estimate the impact of grant award on a set of output indicators measuring the creation of new research results (the number of peer-reviewed articles), its relevance (number of citations and relative citation ratios), as well as its accessibility and dissemination as measured by the publication of preprints and by altmetrics. The results show that the funding program facilitates the publication and dissemination of additional research amounting to about one additional article in each of the three years following the grant. The higher citation metrics and altmetrics of publications by funded researchers suggest that impact goes beyond quantity, but that funding fosters quality and impact.
